London Irish wing Joe Cokanasiga

London Irish wing Joe Cokanasiga has joined England’s training squad in Brighton.

20‑year‑old Cokanasiga who was born in Fiji but moved to England with his family when he was three, was called up by Eddie Jones for last summer’s tour to Argentina and has made 10 appearances for Irish this season but is yet to score a try in the campaign for the club.

He is one of 34 players in camp.

That number will be cut on 18 January when Jones names his squad for the Six Nations, a tournament England are looking to win for what would be a record third successive season.
